GREETING 




TO THE TRADE 



WE take great pleasure in handing you this, our Trade Catalogue of 
Furniture and Furnishings for 1903, which we trust will fill its place, 
not only as a means whereby our several interests will be enhanced and 
benefited, but -will also become a strengthening link in the chain which binds 
yourselves as dealers, and ourselves as manufacturers, together, for the furtherance 
of mutual welfare. 

In ordmary catalogue announcement, we would close our words here, but 
surrounding conditions suggest a further conference with each other. 

In all work of like character to this catalogue, illustrativ^e of the products of 
the Company, we have endeavored to place before you only that which was useful, 
always avoiding any statement or illustration appertaining to said products, which 
would be misleading in the least degree, both as to what they were, and are, as 
well as that which we were fully assured they would become. 

For these, combined with other far-reaching business methods, such as main- 
taining prices, etc., etc., we have been accorded your confidence, and the large 
measure of success already attained could not have been brought about under other 
conditions, which we appreciate, and will endeavor to merit, in the furtherance of 
all our future dealings. 

Together with the cuts of sotas, chairs, and general home fitments, you will 
note that we have added illustrations of the several factories where the goods are 
made, and in which you are interested, as are we. 

These in turn will attract your customers, should you casually call attention 
to them, for they, like ourselves, are ofttimes interested in the sources of supply, 
both as to their character and stability. 



The immense plants at St. Paul, Minn.; Glendale, Long Island; West Superior, 
Wis.; and Oshkosh, Wis., are herewith shown in illustration, as well as views of 
apartments appropriately fitted. 

We would, however, call particular attention to the latest addition, viz. : the 
one now about completed, and situated at Glendale, Long Island, N. Y. 

The size, capacity and fittings of this plant are in keeping with the possibilities 
which its location affords, opportunity suggests, and business calls for, and has the 
very latest in machinery, equipment, railroad facilities, storage, etc., which experience 
has shown will be of great benefit, and assure economical production and practical 
results. 

Many obstacles have been overcome to reach the present very satisfactory 
conditions, and our policy is, and will be, to enlarge the production, and lower the 
price, wherever and whenever it is possible to do so. You will finil that latter 
statement verified, as you peruse the present, and latest price list, sent with this 
catalogue. By comparing the prices on all goods listed in tormer catalogues, and 
which we continue almost in their entirety, you will note a substantial reduction, 
which benefits both your customers and yourself, thereby ensuring increased sale 
and use. 

Regarding the foregoing reduction, such was made possible only through your 
enlarged purchases, and our added facilities, and when, in the evolution of business 
affairs, a like possibility presents itself, we will surely make a further opportunity 
for your profitable consideration. Such is our policy. 

From the Prairies of America to the Homes of the World is our ready 
passport into every section, and we propose to keep in t\ill touch with our people, 
continuing to demonstrate to them how^ far-reaching is our aim, and the object of it. 

With that end in full \ieu, we have adopted a Trade Mark, CRKX, and 
you will note its use : 

CKJEX CKEX CREX 

Gravt Furniture \ Grftsa Carpet \ Croaa Producta \ 

Every piece and parcel ot the immense products ot this vast establishment will 
bear with it this very significant Trade Mark, and we wish you to adopt it at 
once. 'Tis yours as well as ours. 

May the association be a pleasant ami profitable one. 

RespecttulK',
